RIP Joe Cocker

John Robert "Joe" Cocker OBE (20 May 1944 – 22 December 2014) was an English rock and blues singer, who came to popularity in the 1960s, and was known for his gritty voice, his spasmodic body movement in performance and his cover versions of popular songs, particularly those of the Beatles.
His cover of the Beatles' "With a Little Help from My Friends" reached number one in the UK in 1968, and he performed the song live at Woodstock in 1969. His version also became the theme song for the TV series The Wonder Years. His 1975 hit single, "You Are So Beautiful", reached number five in the US. Cocker is the recipient of several awards, including a 1983 Grammy Award for his US number one "Up Where We Belong", a duet with Jennifer Warnes. In 1993 he was nominated for the Brit Award for Best British Male, in 2007 was awarded a bronze Sheffield Legends plaque in his hometown, and in 2008 he received an OBE at Buckingham Palace for services to music. Cocker was ranked #97 on Rolling Stone's 100 greatest singers list.

Udo Jürgens ist verstorben † (1934 - 2014)

 http://www.eventim.de/obj/media/DE-eventim/teaser/de/984x333/2013/udo-juergens-tickets-2014.jpg


Udo Jürgens (born Udo Jürgen Bockelmann, 30 September 1934, Klagenfurt, Carinthia, Austria, died 21 December 2014) was an Austrian composer and singer of popular music whose career spans over fifty years. He wrote more than 800 songs and sold over 100 million records. In 2007 he additionally obtained Swiss citizenship.
He is credited with broadening German-language pop music beyond the traditional postwar schlager in the 1960s by infusing it with a modern pop appeal. His exceptionally tuneful compositions and sophisticated arrangements attracted fans of all ages, and even in his 70s he continued to fill the largest concert venues in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland.

Udo Jürgens ist tot. Der 80-jährige Sänger und Entertainer war heute bei einem Spaziergang zusammengebrochen und im Spital verstorben.

Albert Lee - New Solo Album 'HIGHWAYMAN' Out - December 2014

“Highwayman” features 12 honest and unapologetic renditions of some of Albert’s all-time favourite tracks - recorded live and captured in a moment of true inspiration - and truly represents, to quote the man himself, “the album I’d always wanted to record”. This is Albert Lee as close and personal as you are ever likely to hear.

Although the official release date for the album is 21st December (Albert's 71st birthday), if you order by Friday 19th December we will send out before the weekend, giving you the best chance to receive the album before Christmas Day (though unfortunately we cannot guarantee this). Please note that this applies to UK residents only - delivery to the rest of the world will take longer.

Mark Knopfler hat der populären Musik mit einigen ihrer besten Songs immer wieder wichtige Impulse geliefert. Als genialer Gitarrist, Sänger und Songschreiber von Dire Straits, die sicher zu den größten Rockbands aller Zeiten gehören, erlangte er Weltruhm. Seine neun Soloalben knüpfen an die von ihm begründete Songtradition an und verbinden beide Schaffensperioden zu begeisternden Live-Erlebnissen. Mit rund 120 Millionen Alben zählt er zu einem illustren Kreis von Interpreten, die überragender Erfolg und bleibende Bedeutung auszeichnet. Auf den mehrfachen Grammy-Gewinner trifft die Bezeichnung Superstar wirklich zu, obwohl er sich nie als solcher geriert. Seine Musik bezeichnete ein Kritiker treffend als "Gegenentwurf zum hektischen Popzirkus, der selbst zum Welterfolg avancierte".

Mark Knopfler präsentiert seine aktuellen Songs, eine Auswahl aus seinen Soloalben und selbstverständlich einige markante Hits der 20-jährigen Dire Straits-Ära auf einer Europatournee, die ihn auch nach Deutschland führt. Salem, Hamburg, Dortmund, Mainz, Mannheim, Köln, Bad Kissingen, Stuttgart, Hannover, Berlin, Leipzig und München sind vom 31. Mai bis 11. Juli die Stationen. Sein neues Album "Tracker" wird Anfang des Jahres veröffentlicht.

Leuven in Belgien (Belgium)


Leuven a town in Belgium
(c) inesmusicpics (Leuven, 2014)

You can see some impressions of this beautiful town just click on the picture above to get to the album. 


Leuven (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈløːvə(n)] ( listen); French: Louvain, pronounced: [luvɛ̃], often used in English) is the capital of the province of Flemish Brabant in the Flemish Region, Belgium. It is located about 25 kilometres (16 miles) east of Brussels, close to other neighbouring towns such as Mechelen, Aarschot, Tienen, and Wavre. The municipality itself comprises the historical city of Leuven and the former municipalities of Heverlee, Kessel-Lo, a part of Korbeek-Lo, Wilsele and Wijgmaal.

It is home to Anheuser-Busch InBev, the world's largest brewing group and one of the five largest consumer-goods companies in the world; and to the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, the largest and oldest university of the Low Countries and the oldest Catholic university still in existence.[2] It is also home to the UZ Leuven, one of the largest hospitals of Europe.

Kopenhagen ist immer einen Besuch wert

Kopenhagen
(c) inesmusicpics (Kopenhagen 2014)


Ein Tag in Kopenhagen ist zu wenig, um diese Stadt wirklich zu erkunden. Der Tag war leider auch etwas verregnet, aber ein paar Eindrücke blieben haften und ein weiterer Besuch dieser Stadt ist nicht ausgeschlossen. Bei Interesse an ein paar Impressionen von dieser Stadt, einfach auf das Bild oben klicken, dann gelangt man zum Flickr-Album. Danke!
